Question

I have a website, and I need free, cross-platform FTP file editor and uploader that's also a code editor that I can use to:

Upload files such as HTML/PHP/ASP to my FTP server
Connect to my FTP server to upload these files
Have access to all files already on my website, and be able to edit them and easily overwrite them on the FTP server

Basically, a code editor with the ability to FTP.

Most multi-platform ones (such as Dreamweaver) cost money. By multi-platform, I mean support the most popular operating systems (Linux, Windows, OSX).

Edit It appears that some people might think this is a duplicate. However, that question is talking about a PHP/JavaScript editor; this needs to be able to support code hinting, etc. on other files such as css and html.

Explanation / Answer

Notepad++ can do this with the nppFTP plugin. Now this isn't cross-platform, but I think it does deserve mention here. (And if no better solutions presents itself, you could even run it under Wine/CrossOver).

When you connect via nppFTP you get a filebrowser in a panel on the right, where you can directly open files from the tree, and changes are directly saved to the server via FTP/FTPS/SFTP. A more detailed description is here.
